Crunchberries for Dinner

I have decided to chronicle my stories because I have a compulsion. When something happens to me, no matter how embarrassing, I must share it with everyone on my email address list. So to save email space, I will share my life on the internet. I tell you, it's a lot kinder than sharing my body on the internet.

As I develop this blog, my children are eating Crunchberries for dinner and watching Scooby Doo. So much for my parenting skills. At least I'm not smoking inside and downing a pitcher of margaritas before I beat them or lock them in the basement. I want them to have something to tell their friends when they start the " Listen to what my mom used to do" stories in college or prison. I want my kids to have some stories to tell.

20 minutes later... You know you've done a great job when your kids are in bed screaming. No sweet dreams and cuddles at our house tonight. Where are my cigarettes and that pitcher? Things are a little crazy when J. is out of town. The house is a little messier, the TV is on a little longer and the kids go to bed a WHOLE LOT earlier. They also can have Crunchberries for dinner.

The beginning of brilliance.
Does this mean I can't publish your emails from the last few years and retire early???

Thoroughly enjoying the -real- take on life. Now I must read back and see what else I missed. Thank you!
